Results emails

True. I got by around 1 PM only, it was a pass too. So there is no conspiracy of:
1. Pass first then later fail
2. Yahoo first, then gmail or hotmail.
In CFAI terms, all these are spurious correlations
Good luck with your results folks, pls wish me the same..

There seems to be some serious comprehension issues around the word after

It’s not a delay if someone tells you the email will come after 9am!
Edit:
I can understand skimming the email, missing the word “after”, and then sitting at your computer at 9am waiting for the email OR being really nervous and clicking refresh over and over even though you know it could come in at any time during the day.
For those of you who read the email carefully, saw the words “after 9am”, then sat by the computer getting angry when you didn’t get it at exactly 9am… what was going on here/what was your thought process? Or is this just a reading comprehension issue? (I’m not being sarcastic)
The email was very clear with no ambiguity. If you receive an email saying you’ll receive something on the 1st of September after 9am, you can expect to receive it on the 1st of September between 9am - 11:59pm.
Then why doesn’t CFAI just say, “scores will be released on 7/23”, and not say after 9am and remove all ambiguity of an expectation to get the email at 9am? They have 7 weeks to prepare an email launch– which should be done at the speed of light, not by some clerk manually sending these out one-by-one. This is the mindset of an inept government bureaucracy– “I’ll meet you after 9 sometime”, instead of “I’ll meet you at 9 sharp”.

Man
why cant they declare in 15 days. its just electrnic OMR sheets

because even though two canadidates have exact same scores, one may pass while the other fails.
The passing/failure critiera has been highest secrecy (consipiracy) of CFAI.
They do some very fancy, funky, complicated (stupid as well) and subjective adjustment.
So the machines cannot really do it.

There is no ambiguity in that email. None. At and after are two very different things.
af·ter
During the period of time following (an event): “shortly after Christmas”.
at
(used to indicate a location or position, as in time, on a scale, or in order): at zero; at noon; at age 65; at the end; at the lowest point.
Totally understandable if English is your second language (I studied French for many years and I can imagine missing this stuff in French).
If English isn’t your second language, then this is a reading comprehension issue on your part and has nothing to do with the competency of CFAI (I can’t believe I am defending them after writing that brutal exam).
Why don’t they send them all out at exactly 9am? I don’t know, but I imagine it has something to do with the servers being overloaded.
Edit: I just thought of another way to think about it:
=9 means equals 9 (this is at)
>9 means any number greater than 9 (this is after)
In the email, they told you your result will come >9am (after 9am). They didn’t say it will come =9am (at 9am).
Helpful?

I tell myself it’s because of the ethics adjustment. I picture some poor lady in a windowless room going through each exam to see if it should be bumped up or down. I don’t really know, though.
